Paganfire - Wreaking Fear and Death

Ritual chants and thundering double bass drums kick off this cassette, one of many releases from Filipino legends Paganfire. This four man army has more splits, videos, EPs and albums in a mere nine years than most 'bands' can hope to produce in twenty. And from what I hear on 'Wreaking…', this isn't bullshit, disposable metal mania with a Moyen rip-off cover art. Fuck no, this is viscous and vile, spitting atrocities with every word, which, by the way, are included in the double sided insert. Maniacal, screaming vocals taught the listener on each track. Perverted lusts, political corruption and all-consuming despair are only a few of the horrors the listener will behold on 'Wreaking…'. Over-the-top drums reign supreme as guitars rip, shred and tear flesh from bone. I strongly urge fans of punishing, old-school German thrash to get this fucking tape or anything from the Paganfire catalog, as it is more than capable of holding its own against many heavyweights of the genre.
